After a century of worship, I became the ancestor of the tribe.

Chapter 266 Jishan in Action! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Ancestor."

At the edge of the great formation, Lord Tianzheng was listening to the ancestor's instructions.

"After you return, collect all the clan's flying boats, bring them to the cave to carry the captured people, and send them over as quickly as possible."

Ancestor Tianzheng's face was covered in hair, making him look like a tiger or a leopard. When he spoke, his eyelids drooped as if he were asleep.

Suddenly, the eyes of the Heavenly Ancestor opened and closed for a moment, and a tiger's roar exploded in the head of the Heavenly Ancestor.

Then the whistling sound transformed into a unique secret sound, resounding in the heart of Lord Tianzheng.

"Yes, I'll take care of it as soon as I get back."

Lord Tianzheng's injuries had not fully healed, and his face still looked somewhat pale.

At that moment, he was jolted awake and immediately understood what his ancestor meant.

The mysterious Holy Envoy Clan suddenly appeared in the world, revealing their weakness and making such compromises with them.

The mystery that had been maintained for thousands of years collapsed completely in an instant.

This change is too drastic.

One of the reasons the Holy Envoys were so fearful was because of their fifth-tier status.

Now the Holy Envoy Clan is offering a fifth-tier advancement method, and it's for beast form, which is completely shaking the foundation of the Holy Envoy Clan.

Even if you know this thing exists, it might not be enough to help the ancestor advance to the fifth rank. But there might also be an element of luck involved. What if an old guy advances?

Are the Holy Envoys so bold as to not be afraid of having their position replaced?
Lord Tianzheng felt that if he were placed in the position of the Great Shaman of the Holy Envoy Clan, he would have to kill everyone present.

Once everyone is dead, the threat disappears.

In this situation, it is highly likely that they will be discarded after their usefulness is over, and the entire Zhiyan Bo tribe will disappear into the Juyue Mountains.

They might not be able to defeat a fifth-tier opponent, but they wouldn't just wait to be killed; they still have the strength to fight to the death.

At this moment, Lord Tianzheng glanced at the black bird-shaped beast in the ancestor's hand and headed towards the tribe.

The reason why the Tianzheng tribe is called Tianzheng is because a fifth-order Zhen beast once appeared in their ancestor.

It was a strange beast with the bloodline of Lu Wu that was stolen from the Yongshanbo tribe back then. After it was absorbed, it was promoted and its clan name was changed to Tianzheng.

Although this Heavenly Demon gave birth to a second-generation bloodline before it passed away, the bloodline not only failed to surpass its predecessor, but also stopped before the fifth rank again due to the bloodline's limitations.

Ultimately, the White-browed Marquis obtained from the Yongshanbo tribe was of the Luwu bloodline, resembling a tiger, and possessed a bloodline no weaker than that of the ferocious beast.

After their own ancestor, the Ferocious Beast, devoured the White-browed Marquis, he used this bloodline to break through to the fifth rank and also passed down his bloodline.

However, the bloodline of the descendants of the Zhen Beast showed a situation where the bloodline of Lu Wu and the bloodline of the Zhen Beast were equally developed.

The descendants of the ferocious beast also changed from a five-tailed, one-horned leopard to a tiger-leopard pattern with a tiger king's mark on its forehead.

They've connected bloodlines.

It's normal for wild beasts to have bloodlines, and the Tianzheng tribe can accept it too.

Whether it's the Lu Wu bloodline or the Zhen beast bloodline, as long as one of them stands out, it's fine, even if it completely becomes the Lu Wu bloodline.

Tianzheng wouldn't mind changing his name to Luwu or Tianwu.

Unfortunately, the Tianzheng tribe did not have the opportunity to change its name. The Luwu bloodline and the Zheng beast bloodline were on par, and the second-generation Zheng beasts ultimately stopped before reaching the fifth rank.

The reason why the Tianzheng tribe of Yongyi is said to be the first tribe is because of the first generation of the Zheng beast.

With the passing of the first generation of the Zhen Beast, the name of this First Bo Tribe gradually faded into obscurity.

Although there are no fifth-tier ferocious beasts in the clan now, there is a ferocious beast at the peak of the Divine Realm, and there are also some remains of the fifth-tier ferocious beast left behind.

Speaking of which, a long time ago, the Tianzheng tribe fought against the Holy Envoy tribe, relying on the fifth-order Zhen Beast Ancestor.

Unfortunately, the ancestor of the Ferocious Beasts passed away, leaving the clan with only means of self-preservation. Gradually, they could only submit to the Holy Envoy Clan.

As fortunes change, the mysterious Holy Envoy Clan has now also stepped down from its pedestal.

When Lord Tianzheng left, others such as Lord Changyou and Lord Zhuyan also left. Only Qingyang was unlucky; his lord was blasted into lamb chops by Chihuo.

Although everyone kept their heads down and looked excited, there were some things that were unspoken but understood.

……

"The Great Shamanic Ritual".

Several warriors from the Holy Envoy Clan remained on the flying boat, the voice of the High Priest echoing in their minds.

"Everything is arranged?"

The high priest asked the clansmen that when Xuanzhang returned to the clan to retrieve the beast image, he had also arranged other matters according to his instructions.

Although the patriarchs and chieftains of Yongyi appeared to be in a frenzy of 'advancing to the fifth rank' in the face of the three-stage condensation method and beast form he gave them, how could he possibly believe it?

The fact that these items were brought out already indicated the weakness of the Holy Envoy Clan.

"It's all arranged. Our people have gone into hiding near the various tribes. If anything unusual happens, they will report back as quickly as possible."

Xuan Zhang spoke, and he mobilized all the remaining Divine Treasure Warriors in the clan.

Besides the Spirit Shepherds and Hunting Priests, the Holy Envoy Clan also has nearly forty early-stage Divine Treasure warriors.

Without so many ordinary divine treasures, it would be impossible for so many peak divine treasure warriors to emerge within the clan.

The tribe is currently in a deep slump. These tribesmen may not be good at fighting, but they can easily get a sense of the situation in each tribe by relying on their speed.

"I have arranged three or four tribesmen near each tribe to monitor their territory in all aspects."

Whether it's day or night, anyone who rushes out will definitely be noticed.

Hearing this, the High Priest was still somewhat uneasy. "Tell the people that this is a difficult time for our Holy Envoy Clan. Everyone, be on your guard."

"Have any arrangements been made nearby?"

Xuan Zhang was taken aback, then said, "No."

"Make arrangements nearby as well, especially around the great formation. Keep a close watch on everything, and make sure you see clearly any figures coming from outside."

The high priest's tone was somewhat sinister.

Previously, Yu Cheng had brought patriarchs and chieftains from various tribes to launch a surprise attack on the Blazing Flame Tribe.

Although these people brought a few elders or some clansmen who could pilot flying boats, almost none of them escaped during the previous turmoil.

However, besides these powerful individuals, after so many years of inheritance, it's impossible that there aren't other hidden strengths within each clan.

According to records from at least several thousand years of tribal history, these tribes of Yongyi have resisted the Holy Envoy tribe.

Although they were defeated by the Holy Envoy Clan at the time, they still demonstrated remarkable skills.

For example, fifth-tier magical artifacts and fifth-tier formations, although not as amazing as Blazing Flame, might actually have the ability to overthrow him if they were actually used.

Now, it's time to take precautions.

The beast image he produced was the follow-up to the Three-Turn Form Condensation Method he had previously given.

Having a method doesn't guarantee advancement, but having a beast form to observe can definitely help with advancing to the fifth rank.

At this point, even if the patriarchs of each tribe guessed that they might be discarded after their usefulness was over, they still couldn't help but want to see what the beasts looked like.

Furthermore, they might actually be considering overthrowing him, this fifth-tier great witch.

These are all threats from the Holy Envoy Clan, and they must all be eliminated in the future.

Xuanzhang flew off the flying boat, and the High Priest sat cross-legged on the highest sail of the flying boat.

He took out the bird bone that had been bitten in half by the Kui Ling from his bosom. Half of the beast pattern on it was missing, which made the secret technique attached to the bird bone completely ineffective.

The moment he took out the bird bone, the high priest subconsciously looked around to make sure no one was watching before he felt relieved.

A booming sound came from afar as Ancestor Tianzheng and Ancestor Aoshan bombarded the great formation. This was a routine attack, preventing the Blazing Flame Clan from resting.

The high priest looked down into the great formation, watching the tiny black dots, like ants, swiftly traversing the mountains and rivers.

If he were to find an opportunity, he wouldn't mind striking first and breaking through the blazing array.

With a wave of his hand, a blood-blue bead appeared. This bead was very strange, with fine cracks on its surface, and it had penetrated into a patch of spiritual light at the core.

Inside the spiritual light, a little girl, about a foot tall, was curled up asleep. The tiny girl was covered in cracks from head to toe, like a piece of broken white jade porcelain being pieced back together.

The high priest held the bead in his hand, chanting incantations as spells manifested and disappeared into the bead.

This is the last magical artifact of the Holy Envoy Clan, passed down from their ancestors. Its grade is higher than that of the Jade Disc and the Luo Tian Pagoda, and it is named the Female Pearl.

How much knowledge can a frog at the bottom of a well have?

Thinking back to the excitement of the various patriarchs who had seen the beast images before, it seemed that the Holy Envoy Clan had fallen so low that they even brought out the beast images left behind by their ancestors.

Unfortunately, no matter how much the Holy Envoy Clan declined, it was still a force to be reckoned with.

As the high priest chanted incantations, the little girl inside the pearl fluttered her eyelashes and slowly opened her eyes. Just as she was about to resist, she discovered that not only were the blood vessels all over her body bound, but she also had a serious problem.

"You'd better behave yourself, or I won't hesitate to shatter you and regenerate your spirit."

The girl's lips twitched, and she burst into tears.

As the girl began to cry, blood began to seep from the cracks in her body.

In order to wield this magical artifact, successive great shamans have used blood sacrifices to devour its spirit.

This is also the most common and effective method used by many low-level martial artists in the Great Wilderness when they want to control higher-grade magical artifacts.

This magical artifact was also the reason why the High Priest was not afraid of the various tribes of Yongyi having any ulterior motives.

It would be even better if the various tribes revealed their hidden strengths; he would take them all, including their tribal foundations, as resources for the Holy Envoy Clan to recuperate and thrive.

With a "rip," a bloody gash appeared on the high priest's hand. He grabbed the female bead, and blood immediately poured into it through the crack.

……

Bi Fangbo's tribe.

Bifang was closest to Zhiyan, and the Bifang tribe was the first to return to their tribe. One after another, flying boats of various sizes rushed out of their tribe's territory and headed towards Ji.

High above the land of the Bifang tribe, a black dot streaked across the sky, revealing the flying boat of the Bifang tribe heading north.

When these black dots looked down, their eyes gleamed with a bluish light, taking in all the activity in the mountains and fields of the tribe below.

Especially in the middle of the Bifang tribe's territory, in the place where flames are spewing.

As the warriors of the Holy Envoy Clan streaked across the sky, their eyes deliberately fell upon the core of the Bi Fangbo tribe's territory.

There is movement!
At this moment, the eyes of the Holy Envoy Clan, which were already glowing with a bluish light, revealed witch runes, and a hint of dark gold appeared in their pupils.

As a people of holy messengers, they shepherded the city for the Holy Spirit, their job being to patrol the earth.

Therefore, their ancestral pupil technique of seeing mountains and seas can see through fog, as well as some weak spiritual restrictions. They can even blend into a wisp of wind while flying, making themselves temporarily invisible to others.

Just as Xuanzhang had thought, his clansmen might be somewhat lacking in strength, but they possessed the talent to be scouts.

The four holy envoy warriors took turns patrolling the sky, clearly seeing the entire Bi Fangbo tribe inside and out.

Boom!

Deep within the clan's territory, in a volcano, Bi Fangbo kicked Bi Huolong, a member of the clan known as a divine craftsman, onto the volcano.

"This is the house you're looking after!"

After returning from the scorching heat, Lord Bifang was caught off guard and received a devastating blow.

The clan's treasure cave, protected by two magical spirit-sealing arrays and hidden within magma, is gone.

This is the culmination of thousands of years of Bifang's efforts.

Not only was the hidden clan treasury cave gone, but other clan treasuries throughout the clan were also emptied.

The remaining piles of ore were all show and no substance; they crumbled into dust at the slightest touch, having long lost their vitality.

The entire Bifang has been emptied out!

Who did it!
Bi Huolong was a mid-stage Divine Realm martial artist, yet he remained completely unaware of any disturbance while overseeing his clan.

If it weren't for his skills, the Bi Fangbo tribe wouldn't have suffered any more losses. For a moment, the Bi Fangbo chieftain had the urge to kick him to death.

The fire dragon that crashed into the volcano caused the entire volcano to roar, and streams of fire dragons spewed out from the volcano.

……

"With Bi Fang making such a big fuss, he's probably preparing some kind of backup plan. Let's keep a close eye on him."

Yun Hao spoke, his eyes widening as he looked towards the source of the surging flames. Unfortunately, the raging flames and dazzling spiritual energy blocked his view. In the Holy Envoy Clan, the surnames Xuan and Yu were reserved for those selected as Spirit Shepherds and Hunting Priests; others could only use the Holy Envoy Clan's original surname: Yun.

At this moment, the flames in the core area of ​​the Bifangbo tribe grew larger and larger, even igniting the fire dragon wall, and countless shamanic characters lit up.

As someone who failed to advance to become a Spirit Shepherd, Yun Hao's pupil technique naturally couldn't see through it.

But the more this was the case, the more he felt that Bi Fangbo's tribe was indeed dishonest and was taking this opportunity to prepare some kind of backup plan.

Yes, I must write that down.

……

In the end, a total of forty flying boats headed north from Bi Fangbo's tribe, including three fourth-tier vessels and the rest were all at the peak of the third tier.

The entire fleet was temporarily led by the two Divine Elders, Bi Chi and Bi Ran, and contained tens of thousands of Heavenly Vein Warriors.

The group crossed the Luo River directly into Ji County, heading north along the confluence of the Guimu River and the Luo River.

Then, along both banks of the river, the manpower was divided into ten small teams, and they began to disperse and capture the sacrificial offerings.

The Guimu River is the largest waterway in Ji County, with countless branches, and both banks are ideal places for establishing a clan.

In this situation, it's very easy to catch an entire group at once.

Bi Caiyang led his men upstream along the eastward-flowing tributary and saw a reclaimed field in the distance.

"The grass in this field is so tall. A horse slave is a horse slave. It seems he doesn't know anything else besides raising horses."

"Hey, if they knew anything else, would they be asking to buy our witch soldiers?"

On the flying boat, soldiers of the Bi Fangbo tribe gazed down into the distance.

Ahead, nestled between mountains and water, stood a cluster of houses. But when the flying boat sped over, it was discovered that the once bustling village was completely deserted.

"What about people!"

Bi Caiyang was taken aback. "Go down and search."

Although he didn't know why the clan leader would issue an order to arrest the people of Jidi, in his eyes, the people of Jidi, Manur, were no match for him.

Long ago, various tribes entered Ji to capture slaves. Although Bifang did not do this, many tribes did.

"Commander, there's no one here."

"We didn't have any food or anything; we didn't leave in a hurry!"

Soon, upon hearing the news from his clansmen, Bi Caiyang was somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that the stable boys in Ji have all become supernatural beings, possessing the ability to foresee the future?
Bi Caiyang also landed and, after checking, discovered that the people in the tribe had left more than a day ago, and that it was an orderly migration.

Why did they move away from their ancestral home, which was perfectly safe and had not suffered any disasters?

"Go and look around!"

Unwilling to accept defeat, he ordered his people to dismount their mounts from the flying boat and scatter them in all directions.

At this moment, not only did Bi Caiyang's mission fail, but the other flying boats dispatched by Bi Fangbo, along with the teams personally led by the two Divine Treasure Warriors, also failed.

The idea of ​​searching for tribes along the tributaries of the Guimu River was correct.

Moreover, each of the tribes that can live along the banks of a major river is quite large.

But they all came up empty-handed.

……

"Reporting to the elder, Commander Bi Yun has come to report that several clan territories along the way are deserted."

"Elder, Commander Bi Chan reports that the tribal territories he passed through were all empty."

……

The news quickly reached Elders Bi Chi and Bi Ran, who were also leading their teams to search the tribe, but most of the area along the river was deserted.

If they had moved away a long time ago, it would be understandable, but the houses are in good condition, and judging from the extent of the overgrown weeds, they must have moved away not long ago.

What the hell is going on?!

Two days later, Bi Fangbo, who had finished dealing with clan affairs, also arrived.

He couldn't possibly spread the news that the clan's treasury had been emptied. After catching up with the fleet with a grim face, this was the result he got.

"Scatter and search! I refuse to believe that a bunch of stable boys can really fly and disappear!"

……

Because the Bi Fangbo tribe was relatively close to Ji, they naturally sent people into Ji first.

However, Changyou and Zhuyan, who lived further away, had not yet arrived home.

After returning to his clan, Lord Tianzheng first arranged for people to arrest all the slaves in the clan and imprison them in the cave.

Then, they arranged for a fleet to depart from the tribe's territory, traveling by night and hiding during the day, and attacking any tribes of suitable size they encountered.

They've all been sacrificed with blood. When the blood that flows out, do you think there's any difference between people from other places and people from Ji?
The one I caught was from Jidi!
Ji is no ordinary place. After thousands of years of fighting with Xiaoyang, it has become sparsely populated.

If we were to be so stubborn, and instead fly north by boat at this point, we would only be able to follow behind Bi Fangbo's troops and pick up the leftovers.

The priority now is to seize the sacrificial offerings so that the ancestor can see the changes within the beast's form as clearly as possible during the offering process.

The path to advancing to the fifth rank is not only necessary for the ancestor, but also for him. In fact, due to his cultivation level and lifespan, the ancestor cannot delay for long.

It's like giving him an experiment in advance; whether it succeeds or fails, the experience is his.

As for the schemes of the Holy Envoy Clan, they are all covered in hair. If you want us to die, we will not sit idly by and wait to die.

After arranging things for his own family, Lord Tianzheng then instructed his clansmen to take the jade slip given to him by the Qingyang Ancestor to the Qingyang tribe to deliver a message.

……

Jishan ethnic area.

As night fell, the Earl of Jishan quietly sneaked into the clan's mountain territory.

After looking left and right to make sure no one was around, Lord Jishan tapped an inconspicuous stone. The shamanic script lit up, and a cave appeared.

An elder from the Jishan tribe popped his head out.

"The clan leader has returned?"

Lord Jishan hummed a little tune as he entered the cave and asked, "Is everything alright in the clan?"

"No, they've all dispersed. I walk around every few days, and it's very safe."

"That's fine."

Lord Jishan nodded, and then the glass dragon on his shoulder opened its mouth and spat out hundreds of witch pouches.

“Old Uncle, look at this. These damn bastards are too rich. I only found some places on the outskirts and they have so much stuffed in.”

The clan elder casually opened a magic bag, which was filled with ores and grains. He then opened another bag, which was also full of ores and magic potions.

When the elder saw that a witch's bag was full of source stones, he could no longer hold back his words.

This bag must contain nearly 500,000 Origin Stones.

"It seems we still have to use your method!" said the elder of the Jishan clan. "With these things, even if our clansmen are scattered and don't farm much, they won't go hungry, and they won't have to worry about cultivation."

"Once a portion is allocated to the Blazing Flame Clan, and they keep the powerful members of various clans tied up in the mountains, I can secretly make my move."

Speaking of this, Lord Jishan felt a little regretful. It was true that he and Lilong cooperated well, but he didn't know much about witch formations and spirit restrictions, so he could only make a small profit.

The reason I had the courage was because I saw the ancestors and chieftains of these tribes all appearing in the mountains outside the territory of the Blazing Flame Clan.

With the old folks not home, the feeling of being a wandering knight-errant from back in the day suddenly came rushing back.

I didn't dare go to Tianzheng, so I went to Bifang first, but unfortunately, I don't know which guy made a move beforehand.

Therefore, I made a special trip to Qingyang.

"By the way, clan leader, what you predicted has indeed happened!"

The Jishan elder, who was happily inspecting the resources, suddenly realized something.

"Luckily you managed to get all the departments to escape, otherwise we would have been arrested."

The elders of the Jishan clan stayed in their clan's territory, not only visiting their own clan members, but also wandering around the Ji region according to the arrangements of the Jishan Earl, especially the area where the Guimu River and the Luo River meet.

People traveling from the south to the north usually pass through this intersection.

“I saw the flying boats of the Bi Fangbo tribe heading north, searching upstream along the tributaries of the lower reaches of the river. I did not take action as you instructed.”

Most of the tribes along the way had dispersed, and they only managed to capture a small number of people.

Lord Jishan frowned.

When he saw the Zhiyan tribe being besieged in the mountains outside the Zhiyan tribe, he thought of the Yongshan tribe, which had been coveted and divided by various tribes in the past.

This scene is similar to what it was back then.

Especially after witnessing the fifth-order witch formation in the Blazing Flame, and seeing the Blazing Flame withstand a fifth-order attack with the help of ordinary clansmen, the shock was unimaginable, and at the same time, an extremely strong sense of crisis arose within him.

Given the nature of the various tribes in Yongyi, the traditions and methods of burning and scorching will definitely arouse their covetousness.

The Blazing Flame withstood the siege of the fifth-tier tribes and the various tribes of Yongyi. These people will definitely hold all the grudges against all the tribes in Jidi.

This is not wishful thinking; in the eyes of all the tribes in Yongyi, the land of Ji is actually the same.

Our tribe and Blazing Flame are actually one entity. If Blazing Flame is defeated, Jishan will definitely be purged.

For them, having seized one Blazing Flame, they didn't care about gaining another Jishan.

Now is no longer the time when Xiaoyang ravaged the north. With Xiaoyang gone, it doesn't matter whether Jishan exists or not.

Although Lord Jishan did not understand how to break a fifth-order grand formation, he knew that the simplest and most convenient way to break it was through blood sacrifice.

Looking across Ji, there aren't actually many people; a portion of them occupy the northern part of Ji under the command of Zhiyan.

The tribes in the southern part of Ji were actually mostly vassal tribes of the Jishanbo tribe.

Therefore, before heading to the Qingyang tribe to gather resources, he and the clan elders went to the various tribes separately and told everyone to disperse.

It wasn't a discussion, but a direct order.

In Ji County, the name of Ji Mountain was already deeply rooted in people's hearts, and when he fought against Xiao Yang, he killed tens of thousands of people in one go.

Most of the vassal tribes followed his advice to disperse and hide.

This method of hiding, which originated from Zhiyan, had actually spread throughout Ji County long ago.

Not only did the vassal tribes under Jishan disperse, but the tribes under the four garrison cities controlled by Zhiyan were also notified to disperse.

Compared to his vassals, the four guardians of Blazing Flame were more decisive and swift in their actions.

Now, even if various departments arrest people, it will cost a lot and the results will be very poor.

"Go and keep an eye on the fleet. Estimate how many people they've captured. We absolutely cannot let them succeed, or the Blazing Flame Formation might be in danger."

After giving this instruction, Lord Jishan added, "Remember not to get too close. Safety is paramount. It seems that Zhiyan has really pushed these guys to their limits."

After making the arrangements, Lord Jishan quickly disappeared into the night, heading towards the Juyue Mountains.

He had previously made an agreement with Shen Can that if anything changed, they could leave a secret signal somewhere to meet.

He now needs to make contact with Blazing Flame.

……

Meanwhile, outside the Qingyang Earl's territory.

"Good heavens, who did this? How could they have done it even faster than us?"

After Kui Ling emerged, he was speechless. Apart from the deepest hidden clan storehouse, the other four clan storehouses were empty.

"Alright, let's go back first and send the resources back."

The clone transformed into a stream of light and rushed towards Jidi.

Of the resources we seized from Bi Fangbo's tribe, not many were precious medicines, and most of them were used to treat injuries.

The precious medicine obtained from Qingyang is the key to Shen Can's rapid breakthrough to the peak of the Divine Treasury Realm.

Relying solely on the primordial energy within the clan is far from sufficient.

Kui Ling then carried his small drum on his back and followed.
